HY G. A. WATERHOUSE. 2 G7 



9. 15-17 mm. (15). Somewhat broader than in ^. 



U p p e r s i d e as in (J but much paler. 



U n d e r s i d e as in (J but without the purplish reflection. 



Semper records this species under D. varuna, Horsf., which, 

 from descriptions, it appears to approach. I am inclined to 

 regard it as the Australian form of B. orsei.^, Hew., as our species^ 

 exactly agrees with de Niceville's* remarks on that species. 



Loc. — Brisbane to Cape York (^ 8, Q 5). 



Rapala democles, Miskin. 



Deiidorix democles, Misk., Trans. Ent. Soc. Lond. 1884, p. 95. 



The only two known specimens, I believe, are two males in the 

 Miskin collection, both with secondary sexual characters, which 

 prevents their being placed in Dendorix. Failing a detailed 

 structural examination, I think it best to place the species in 

 Rapala. It is shaped much as in the previous species, with the 

 upperside violet-blue margined with black; and the underside 

 very light brown, with darker transverse bands much as in the 

 previous species. Their size is about 17 mm. 



Log. — Johnston River, Q. 



BiNDAiiARA, Moore. 



Lep. Cey. i. p.lll, 1881; de Nicev., Butt. Ind. iii. p. 471, 189 0. 



Foreiving with costa and outer margin nearly straight; sub- 

 costal three-branched. HiiuhuiiKj with distinct anal lobe, a 

 single tail to 1st median, over \ inch long. 



This genus, which contains only one representative in Australia, 

 differs from all Australian Lycsenidre in the possession of a very 

 long tail.
